It's been a sad week for those in the Buffalo, NY and national bowling community. Anthony "Nin" Angelo, the father of PBA pro and bowling center owner Brad Angelo has entered the great bowling alley above us. He passed away on April 4, 2013 at the age of 85.
Known for his competitiveness, Nin bowled against some of the local and national greats. He also helped Brad along the way and was present at the grand opening of Brad Angelo Lanes back on October 2, 2012.
Outside his bowling center, the sign reads "Remembering a Bowling Legend. Mr. Nin Angelo. I love you dad."
Here are two stories that were written about Nin Angelo shortly after his passing that talk about the accomplishments and contributions he made to bowling.
